Got my hands on a new filterbox for free, with less holes of course.
It cleaned up nicely and looks a bit neater compared to my original box which the previous owner had mauled.

Picked rear brake discs,pads and sparkplugs up from tps,collected a gearlinkage bush repair kit from gsf and collected rear wiper and front aero style blades from the dealers and ordered a new brake master cyl cap  :laugh: got the gear linkage all sorted  :smiley: and finally got the centre console and handbrake done oh and fitted the centre caps that arrived earlier.

Got the rear brake calipers & discs off only to find no abs reluctor ring on the new discs  :angry: so had to order some for the morning and cars now left in the garage on axle stands  :rolleyes: changed the spark plugs and had to order a new tow eye cover for passenger side ones from volksbits were wrong ones  :angry: and a new rotor arm and cap i did manage to give the trim some 'black wow' treatment
